Adventures with chickens and gardens on the city outskirts.
Tropical Storm Bill is about to hit us (or his remnants, rather). Fortunately, it looks like we may only get 6-8″ instead of the originally predicted 8-10″ of rain. That’s over the next 24 hours, people. Yes, you read that right.
It’s May. I don’t know how. It should still be February, and I can’t tell you how much I wish that I would wake up in the morning and these last two months have been a nightmare.
I was honestly planning that the next ‘down on the farm’ post was going to be a virtual tour of the new chicken coop. But I haven’t even taken those pictures yet.

A couple of years ago, I decided to join this thing called Pinterest. I didn’t expect it to literally change my life.
Eating healthy and living sustainably has always been a dream of mine – I spent a lot of time outdoors as a child, and I have a long-held fascination with nature and animals. I started following a few Pinterest boards about gardening, and stumbled across this thing called urban farming.
And then I discovered this thing called Back to Eden.
